This beef stew pairs perfectly with a slice of crusty bread or a warm biscuit to soak up all the flavorful broth. For a complete meal, serve it alongside a simple green salad or some steamed green beans.
If you’re feeling indulgent, a dollop of mashed potatoes on the side can make this stew even more satisfying.
